Build deliveries locally

Building the desktop#

Go to apps/desktop, and:

• To generate the packages, run pnpm electron-forge:make.
• To only build the Flatpak, run pnpm electron-forge:make-flatpak.
• To only build without packaging it, run pnpm electron-forge:package.

Building the server#

Go to apps/server and run pnpm package to run the build script. The built artifacts will appear in apps/server/dist, whereas the packaged build will be available in apps/server/out.

On NixOS#

Under NixOS the following nix-shell is needed:

nix-shell -p jq

For Linux builds:

nix-shell -p jq fakeroot dpkg

To test the Linux builds, use steam-run:

$ NIXPKGS_ALLOW_UNFREE=1 nix-shell -p steam-run
[nix-shell] cd dist/trilium-linux-x64
[nix-shell] steam-run ./trilium
